Exclusive Wii SSX title unveiled

EA has officially announced SSX Blur, a new title in the SSX franchise developed exclusively for the Wii.

EA is returning to the slopes with SSX Blur, promising huge air, blurring speed and insane tricks - all the features that have made the SSX series such a fan favourite.

Developed by EA Montreal under the EA Sports Big brand, SSX Blur will take full advantage of the unique Wii controller, with every motion the player makes translated into an in-game action.

"We wanted to take the soul of the franchise - the air, the speed, the tricks, the fun - and Wii-ify it," said Alex Hyder, producer on SSX Blur. "You're going to see that reflected in the On-the-Ground & In-the-Air controls, the characters, the user interface, and every other aspect of this game."

SSX Blur will be available in North America and Europe for the Wii in March 2007.
